Pepsi's plan to reduce plastic waste includes ditching plastic bottles for cans.
The company said Friday that its Aquafina-brand water will soon be sold in aluminum cans at US fast food and restaurant chains beginning as soon as next year.
"Tackling plastic waste is one of my top priorities and I take this challenge personally," PepsiCo CEO Ramon Laguarta said in a statement.
The company said Bubly, its line of flavored sparkling water, will now only be offered in cans.
Pepsi said it has committed to using only recyclable, compostable or biodegradable packaging by 2025, and it's pledged to make new plastic bottles using 25% recycled material.
